Project description:

Zerohunger is a service that takes the waste food from our first clients that are restaurants hotels, cafés and catering services then sort it and arrange it. then we give it to homeless people in specific distributing points in the city, and to people living in slums.

Goal and purpose of the project:

Our goal is to empower homeless people and give them a chance to start a new life and focus on improving themselves and living in a more decent way our project brings a solution to two problems the first is that many restaurants, hotels, cafés and catering services are wasting left food and throwing it away.

The second is that many homeless people each day are looking for something to eat in the dustbins, many people living in slums can't afford to have a decent meal everyday. those include chidren without houses, and also imigrant families.
Our goal is to empower homeless people and give them a chance to start a new life and focus on improving themselves and living in a more decent way

Motivation of the applicant / applicant team:

What motivates us are those homeless and poor people who even though they don't have much food, if they find someone in need, they never hesitate to share, are those children that are wondering in the streets and searching in dustbins for some food. we want those people to have access to proper food, and a proper life.
We want this initiative to keep going on, and to be implemented in more than 10 moroccan cities next year, and within two years we hope to implement it in other five african countries by collaborating with other associations

Use of prize money:

The money will be used to help us transport the food from restaurants to people in need, to buy materials for sorting the food,and to pay for the transportation of the food.
